Your new boat is quite beautiful, and it looks very fast. A great sailor deserves a great boat, and it looks like a very special 11 year old will be going very fast.
Have a great birthday, and keep us posted on your results. It is fun following your racing.
Congratulations and Happy Birthday Fred. You earned and deserve the new boat.
Damn, Alex, can you adopt me... he got more loot for his birthday than I have in 10 years of birthdays...

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
